Frequently Asked Questions

Which AstralPool filters does this MPV suit?
This valve is designed for the AstralPool CA Series — specifically the CA280 and CA340 sand filters with 40mm ports. It will not suit CA Series filters with 50mm ports; check your existing valve or filter manual to confirm.

Will this replace my old grey or black MPV?
Yes — Part 76044 is a direct replacement for both the older grey and the black hexagonal multiport valves on CA Series filters. The unions and o-rings are included for a complete swap.

What are the 6 valve positions?
Filter (normal operation), Backwash (clean sand media), Rinse (settle media after backwash), Recirculate (bypass sand), Waste (drain water), and Closed (isolate the filter).

Do I need any additional parts to install this?
In most cases, no — the kit includes 3 unions, o-rings, and a pressure gauge. You may need thread sealant (PTFE tape) for the gauge fitting. Always inspect existing plumbing before installation.
